Look through the finder and focus on a far-away
object. Turn the front lens mount (23) in one
direction or another until the object appears in
focus. Now screw the counter-ring (23a) in the
direction of the lens mount.
8. Lens Covers
In order to protect the interior of your telescope
from dust and dirt, the opening of the tube is
protected by a lens cover. There is also a lens
cover (21) on the eyepiece holder (6) (Figure 1).

9. Flexible shafts
In order to facilitate the exact fine adjustment of
the declination- and right ascension shafts, the
flexible shafts have been placed on the holders
of both these shafts, in the places designed for
that purpose.

The long flexible shaft (14) (Figure 1) is moun-
ted parallel to the telescope tube. It is secured
with a clamp screw (16, 17) on the designated
indentation on the shaft.
The short flexible shaft (15) (Figure 1) is moun-
ted sideways. It is secured with a clamp screw
(16, 17) on the designated indentation on the
shaft. Your telescope is now ready for use.
STEP II – Using the Telescope
1. Operation –Mounting
Your telescope comes with a mount that gives
you two possibilities for observation.
A: Azimuthal = ideal for viewing objects on the
Earth (terrestrial observation)
B: Parallactic = ideal for viewing objects in the
sky (astronomical observation)
